I just wanted to pop in quickly and wish a very happy birthday to this legendary Cuban figure. Universally revered by both Cubans and Cuban Americans alike, José Martí is the national independence hero of Cuba and a perfect example of cubanidad. 

No matter what side of the Florida Straights you reside on, if you identify as Cuban you respect and admire José Martí.  Take a listen to hear about a bit about his life and legacy, how he built the Cuban nation from right here in New York City, and how he continues to be a symbol for unity between the United States and Cuba even today.

Mil gracias for listening mi gente! I'm super curious to hear if you like this "pop-in" format. If you did enjoy the format, it would mean so much to me if you share the episode and subscribe to CubaCast. As always, los quiero mucho!
